Description

Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program (MCHPP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Brunswick, Maine. Our mission is to offer dignity and empowerment by providing all members of our community with access to healthy food.

MCHPP’s warehouse and administrative facility on the Brunswick Landing, includes the Community Kitchen, a shared-use kitchen space that is available for businesses and community groups to rent and is also used for MCHPP’s internal volunteer food processing.

The mission of the Community Kitchen at MCHPP is to support an equitable, just, and sustainable food system by providing users with access to a certified commercial kitchen and high-quality equipment. We recognize that funding is a barrier to access for many and have implemented sliding-scale pricing to address this challenge. Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) led or serving groups have been prioritized in recognition of the systemic racism and barriers that have impacted Maine's BIPOC people and businesses for generations.

The kitchen encompasses nearly 700 sq ft with an additional 700 sq ft of dry, cold, and frozen storage. Renters have access to the complete kitchen, and fully equipped dishwashing station 24/7. Current kitchen equipment includes convection ovens, baker’s oven, six burner range with oven, 40-gallon tilt skillet, commercial immersion blender, household food processor, household blender, large cutting boards, knives, stock pots, strainer pots, roasting pans, sheet pans, speed racks, rolling carts, as well as a variety of small wares. Four prep tables are adequately spaced throughout the kitchen, giving each renter or volunteer group space to efficiently work. MCHPP provides restrooms, compost, laundry, trash, and recycling services as well as gloves, hairnets, and aprons for volunteers and renters.
